Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-TX )'s narcissism was on peak display, following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, turning the focus on herself and claiming it's the right that needs to tone down the rhetoric, not those like her on the left.
During Crockett's appearance on Friday on "The Breakfast Club," the host asked how Crockett was doing, and she immediately turned the focus on herself. Of course she did. [Note: Her comments in the video below are mostly in the first six minutes.]

"It's a tough time for all people in general. But obviously, as somebody who isn't afraid to speak her mind, our country is truly falling apart, and it is devolving into next-level chaos as well as next-level violence," the congresswoman said.
"There were so many people that immediately reached out from all over and was [sic] like, 'What is going on with your security? We need to make sure that you are good'…and we are now engaging in conversations about security or the lack thereof for elected officials that are in Congress," she added. "I mean, I have to pay for my own security. So, I have to raise money to keep myself safe because they will not pay to take care of us."
She questioned what "really does cross the line," when it comes to freedom of speech. "But are you free to say just any and everything? There are limits to all of our Constitutional protections."
And Crockett said Democrats are "denouncing political violence," after the assassination happened, but admitted she's not convinced that's what it was, suggesting it was maybe personal, before appearing to blame those on the right.
"Even if [this person] came from our side of the aisle, let's assume the worst… let's talk about it," Crockett said. "So, we've got to talk about what it means when you are running for president or you are running for one of these higher offices...and you go out there and say things like 'I could shoot somebody in the middle of the street in New York and I could still win."
She claimed in one breath that she had never advocated for anyone to commit violence against those on the right, then suggested it's fine to call someone a "wanna-be-Hitler." "All those things are are not necessarily saying go out and hurt somebody."
Crockett said she can say Trump is "operating as a dictator. That doesn't mean that I want somebody to go out and hurt the President of the United States."
At one point, she also tried to imply that it's those on the right somehow promoting "a culture of violence," using images of ICE agents doing their jobs and arresting criminal illegals, as her example of "bad behavior" that's "being rewarded."
As RedState reported, Kirk was murdered while doing what he loves, just talking to college kids about his faith and Conservative views, when an assassin killed him at Utah Valley University, in Orem, Utah, on Wednesday.

After the assassination, many called his murder what it was, political violence. Why? Because Kirk went out and spoke with Gen Z and dispelled liberal myths they had been told.
As RedState reported, on Friday, authorities announced that the suspected killer, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson from Utah, was in custody. They also revealed that engraved messages on the bullets and unspent bullet casings read: "Hey, Fascist!" "Catch!" and "If You Read This, You are Gay, LMAO," as we wrote..
